suffered severe damage last year. it was struck by barges that had gotten loose in the choppy waters of the bay. during one of those major storms. >> all right. yeah, i want to think about the bridges on the bay. i think about the cosco busan, and i think about the valley fog that we get in the winter months that sits right down on the bay, and the visibility is go to almost zero, like that bad valley fog. and it happens sometimes late winter. and that's when we have some of our worst ship collisions. so definitely an eye opener. these were the highs from today. and there will be a little cooler tomorrow mid 60s as opposed to those kind of upper 60s. the 6766 will be a little bit cooler because the clouds and a chance of a shower or two, and especially into the afternoon and evening hours, it's kind of all over the map with this system. it's a good looking system up here, but we're down here. and so the dynamics are not really that powerful. but we will get a little bit of wind. the mountains will benefit much more from this. they're going to get a couple of feet of snow. but for us it's going to be about scattered showers, quarter

of an inch here, half an inch. there except in the, you know, the coastal hills and the spots that really do accumulate quite a bit of precipitation. but in terms of what the hydrology, it's not going to be, you know, it's going to be beneficial water. it's not going to be water that's going to cause us a problem with the accumulations will be light enough. that's what i'm trying to say. here is the model. and then we go to tomorrow morning. and then here's the rain starting to move into the north bay. and then there it is tomorrow evening. and you see it working its way in about six seven. but it's still way up here. san jose has got barely anything and then it pushes through after six, 7:00. and that's when the heaviest showers would be. and this is 7 a.m. thursday morning. and then thursday afternoon. so i think thursday looks like a pretty good day. and then friday morning and then friday afternoon. so by friday around 10:00 this thing moves in. we're not in the strongest dynamics. we're north and east of the main low center, which the strongest dynamics are going to be down here down around monterey. but we'll still get some rain from

this on friday and a little bit into saturday morning. and that should be at the weekend. not looking like a washout. certainly sunday will be the best day on the weekend. milder temperatures tomorrow. and then this is the forecast. the forecast is going to move around especially i think this saturday thing could get wetter or hopefully we'll get drier. we'll see. there's the five day forecast. i'll see you back here tomorrow night. >> all right bill thank you. new tonight as south san francisco man says he caught a mountain lion on camera in his backyard. the potential sighting comes after the deadly mountain lion attack here in northern california this past weekend. but as ktvu joy horta explains, some wildlife experts are questioning the recent sighting. >> there's a heightened sense of fear after the first deadly mountain lion attack to hit california in two decades. two brothers were attacked on saturday in el dorado county, according to the local sheriff's office, leaving one of them dead . for jason glines of south san francisco, who lives in a wooded area surrounded by hills, a four
